Course Abbreviation: CE 412Course Name: Fluid Mechanics 1. Course DescriptionThis course deals with properties of fluids; fluid statics; fluid in motion and the conservation of mass; pressure variation in flows; momentum and energy principles; dimensional analysis and similitude; application in civil engineering: pipe flow, pipe networks, and open channel analysis. 2. Course ObjectivesThis course aims to 1) identify and obtain values of fluid properties and relationship between them, 2) understand the principles of continuity, momentum, and energy as applied to fluid motions, 3) recognize these principles written in form of mathematical equations, 4) apply these equations to analyze problems by making good assumptions and learn systematic engineering method to solve practical fluid mechanics problems, 5) apply fundamental principles of fluid mechanics for the solution of practical civil engineering problems of water conveyance in pipes, pipe networks, and open channels. 3.Texts and References1) “Fluid Mechanics” by F. M. White, 7th ed., McGraw-Hill, 2) “Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics” by Munson, Young & Okiishi, 2nd ed., Wiley, 3) “Fluid Mechanics” by Streeter and Wylie, McGraw-Hill, 4) “Fluid Mechanics with Engineering Application” by Daugherty, Franzini and Finnemore, McGraw Hill, 5) “An Introduction to Fluid Mechanics” by Bachelor, Cambridge University Press. 4.
